28 Best Korean Restaurants in Sacramento

“Meeting a friend for lunch on a Sunday afternoon, she recommended we come to Southside Super. I had never heard of this place or dined here before so I was excited to try something new!

When we arrived, it was fairly crowded, but we managed to place our order at the register and snag a seat inside. Unfortunately, having arrived later in the day, all of the hot and cold to-go items were sold out.

I decided to try the chicken pho from their made-to-order menu. My friend ordered the spam fried rice. The food came out relatively quickly, and you can tell that it is absolutely made with the utmost care, love, and highest quality of ingredients.

This was hands-down some of the best chicken pho I have ever had in my life. I will definitely be coming back to Southside Super, especially earlier in the day to try some of their grab and go items, as well as more of their menu.“

“The good amazing as well as the staff and service. I'm not sure if this is home cooked meals but holy cow did it taste like it. The complementary sweet tea is ridiculously good and addicting they should bottle and sell it so I can drink it everyday.“

“Very good food. Friendly staff“

“Once again Oz knocks it out of the park. We took 30 of our Black belt class for our 16th annual Korean dinner. Managers Phillip and Sean insured that everyone was taken care of. The service was fantastic and the food was Great can't wait till next year Tony R.“

“By far the best KBBQ I've been to. This is my comparison to several in Sac like OZ, and in San Francisco. It is pricey but if you can eat, it's well worth it. Sides are the best here but careful not to eat too much of it haha. The Meat were of the best quality compared to the other places.“

“We discovered this restaurant last February 2025, and after that me and partner became a regular customer, to the point that even the server knows what we will order without asking😂 I love the hospitality and the service on this restaurant, the food is superb! everything taste authentic! must visit!!!💗“

“Returned after several years and I am thrilled that the quality has remained intact. The aunties on staff were as warm and kind as I remembered them. The dishes are delicious 😋. You cannot go wrong with anything on their menu but we had Bimbimbap , spicy beef soup and kimchi fried rice this time. Their galbi Jim is also delicious. Last but not least is their lettuce Kimchi. No one does it better IMO. Best Authentic Korean food in Sac IMO ☺️🙌🏾“

“First time here and the wait was only 10 minutes. Got seated and the waiter was amazing. Explained everything on menu we had questions about and spice levels too. We ordered and got our food within 10 minutes. Starter dish we got was a order of Cajun garlic fries that were amazing. We ordered the shrimp and lobster order. Lobster tail, half pound of shrimp, corn & sausage. I ordered the medium heat and they were so delicious. We added a side of white sticky rice and noodles. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“The food is decent. Compared to other Korean restaurants, they offer a larger variety of side dishes, and the portions are generous.

If you value quantity over quality, this place is worth visiting. The ingredients don’t feel particularly fresh.

I would recommend the yookgaejang.“

“I got their food at a BTS ARMY day event with Sacramento BTS ARMY during the summer. My Korean mom LOVED their food so we sought out their restaurant in Elk Grove. I love the concept of you picking your own plate (like Panda Express/Chipotle) and I grabbed a variety and my mom grabbed her own variety of dishes. Generally the food is great, and the music is of course, Kpop, and lots of parking area.

The food itself, you can tell it's been sitting for a minute or few, but the flavor is great, and the refrigerated dishes are fresh. My Korean mom was especially impressed by their seaweed salad (a bit salty and brine-y for me) and she loved their kimchi. I personally like the Korean salad, which is basically a konjac jelly noodle and veggies mixed a mayo sauce (don't judge it till you try it, much healthier than ranch!) And their potato croquette. Their bean sprouts and greens are especially fresh and delicious if you enjoy traditional Korean banchan. What I probably won't get is their fish cake dish because it was overcooked and soggy, but I like that usually, but not today.

Overall, we will be back! 잘 먹고 갑니다!“

“food and slushies 10/10!!! The only downside was the wait it took 30 minutes to get food.“

“Simply a marvelous surprise. Could well have been the tastiest restaurant meal I’ve ever eaten… it was that good.“

“I've been to this place many of many a times and I will continue to come here it's an amazing Vibe and the food is absolutely phenomenal the staff is always super positive and welcoming I recommend this place to anyone and everyone with a sense of good taste buds.“

“If you’re looking for a spot that actually delivers on both flavor and atmosphere, this Korean restaurant deserves your attention. The variety of dishes makes it easy to explore without feeling overwhelmed, and everything I tried had a clear identity. The side dishes alone could be a highlight. It’s one of those places you want to come back to just to try what you missed the first time.“

“First time here and I loved it so much. The seatings are with benches and a little tight but still decently roomy. There’s a lot of writing on the wall as you can write on it. The bathroom doesn’t flush as I held it down for 20secs and more like followed on the instruction in the bathroom. The food here is sooo flavorful and aromatic. I literally fell in love with my food. The rice was like Thai purple sticky rice just not sticky and I love that even more. My food was just not as tender as I’d like it to be but still good. I love the broth it came in and everything. My boyfriend had the tofu rice plate and that was pretty mid as I felt like they could’ve stir fry the tofu into the meat. Plus you can make this at home which didn’t feel very restaurant-y. The water was ice cold and they give it to you in a jug. Also offer barley tea but I did not drink it. Service was well, just like any other server.

(same review by me on Yelp)“

“Good experience, most of our dishes were pretty good and the side dishes were tasty. The bulgogi and teriyaki chicken were our favorites: good flavor and portion size with each. The fried chicken was just okay; not super flavorful unless it was a piece drenched in sauce and lost its crispness very quickly. My father was very disappointed with his soup, while the flavor wasn’t bad the seafood was pretty minimal - just a few smallish pieces; while it’s just meant for one person and not the most expensive thing there definitely could have been more.“

“Amazing food and kind service! The environment is quiet and peaceful, making it a great place to relax and enjoy your meal. I highly recommend the crispy garlic and Yangnyum drumsticks—they were absolutely delicious! However, I would say the prices are pretty expensive, but considering it’s a small business, I’m happy to support!“

“Tried this place while visiting the UCD campus. Great food, my only complaint was a little to much mayo for my liking but the serving size and quality was great. Overall the experience was great. The nice lady at the front makes the business feel warm and welcoming. Please support local businesses like this.“

“I've been coming here for over 16 yrs. I'll be very honest the only thing I order is the Bibimbap #17, no spicy. I just love the sesame sesame seed oil. The vegetables are gently sauteed in the sesame seed oil, chicken is char grilled for the prefect touch of smoke..they have some traditional items that look fresh and delicious.“

“Very clean. Friendly staff. Trendy atmosphere. There's only one size for their drink (no need to tell the cashier the size you want). All their drinks are delicious. They sometimes host a special events. I highly recommend DeLuna Dessert Cafe.“

“Staff great service, great venue. Great 😃 atmosphere to enjoy and music is great.“

“It can be quite chaotic the first couple of times you go. Get your sauces and add-ins while you’re waiting for your soup and/or meats to arrive. The person sitting by the belt will be busy grabbing all the sides so best to do this before your food arrives. It’s as good as you make it.“

“Appreciate how fresh the food is and the effort to get real Korean flavors into the food. My K- lunch burrito was a little sweet, but on the whole, pretty good Korean fusion. We should they had a little more traditional gimpbop and bibimbop, but their fusion twists are solid. Little pricey for what you get, bust considering where and when- a good option for the state worker crowd stuck near the capital.“

“First time , the food was delicious. The wings were fire. I would definitely give it a five-star for the food quality and taste. My only complaint is they did not have napkins on tables or in the counter. The bathroom also didn’t have napkins, which is fine, but it would have been great if there was a door opener with a foot so I didn’t have to open the door with my washed hands.“

“The Yanchea is so delicious and the chicken is so crunchy in the outside and the chicken is so tasty and soft and tender in the inside . And i love the seasoned french fries .“

“Food was great! I recommend this venue for great tasty food!“

“Big place to celebrate birthday“
